            Bug ID: 4805
           Summary: Compose window does not open for "mailto" links
                    containing "//" from external programs
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 4.0.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Other
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: t.thielen at oashi.com

claws-mail is my default mail program.

Clicking on the following "mailto" link (for example in Firefox) will correctly
open claws-mail and a compose window with the expected contents in the
respective fields:

<a
href="mailto:t.thielen at oashi.com?subject=hello&body=something%20other%20https:_/example.com">bla</a>

But if the address at the end is formatted correctly using "//" (instead of the
incorrect "_/" above)

<a
href="mailto:t.thielen at oashi.com?subject=hello&body=something%20other%20https://example.com">bla</a>

claws-mail will open/receive the focus but no compose window will open.

It seems "//" causes some problem.

"claws-mail --debug" did not provide any info, in fact did not output any
messages for that specific action at all for the problematic URL (the second
one); for the wrong but non-problematic URL (the first one) some messages were
printed.
